Abstract

This is the first detailed study of the Hotel Guenegaud, the first home of the Paris Opera in 1670, and the first home of the Comedie Francaise ten years later. The account books remain in the Archives of the Comedie Francaise, providing the source for a highly detailed account of the administrative structures and day-to-day running of the theatre. Moreover, a study of the records of ticket sales makes possible not only an analysis of the tastes and composition of the Guenegaud's audience, but also an attempted reconstruction of the theatre auditorium. This book will be helpful for academics in the fields of drama and theatre studies. All quotations from French sources are given in translation.

Abstract

This book takes the head-scratching out of human sexuality. Personal construct theory provides the foundation for a psychosocial explanation of sexuality that views everyday social interaction as key to the development of sexual identity and desires. The theory developed here accounts for stability and change in sexual identity through an understanding of the importance of experience and the importance of meaning in everyday life. The potential impact of erotica and pornography on sexual desire is discussed, as is the role of social power on sexual behaviour. The variation of sexual expression among individuals—everything from asexuality and sado-masochism to sexual assault—is examined and explained. Formal techniques for changing sexual desires are also presented. .

Abstract

La contribution de ce volume consiste à s’adresser aux questions que provoque l’émergence du théâtre européen, mais surtout le théâtre français, dans le contexte d’un urbanisme grandissant. Dès le XVI e siècle, la ville et ses habitants sont témoins d’une évolution de plus en plus importante concernant l’architecture et la vie humaine. C’est en grande partie à travers le genre comique que ce livre explore ces transformations, selon les perspectives diversifiées que la ville produit à une époque de mutations sociales et d’expansion démographique rapide. L’identité de la ville en scène se construit tantôt par les possibilités de mouvement pour les citadins en allant d’un quartier à l’autre, tantôt par le passage de la ville à la campagne, tantôt par les possibilités de se rencontrer offertes par les foules et par les occasions sociales. Alors, la sociabilité comme elle est représentée sur la scène suscite non seulement le besoin de créer et de mettre en œuvre de nouvelles formes d’interaction humaine, mais aussi amène à réfléchir, implicitement ou explicitement, sur les valeurs qui s’y associent. Enfin, l’aspect imposant de la nouvelle ville invite à mettre en scène de manière imaginative cet environnement urbain. Le théâtre invente donc la ville en en faisant l’un de ses principaux personnages.
